Space to Spare

Space To Spare - A Mom's Guide To Home Organization

I am not the most organized ! My friends would have to agree. When it comes to my home, I have stuff stashed & stored everywhere. There is no rhyme or reason why I am this way. Since our recent move, my disorganization has become even more chaotic. Are you frazzled by your family's hectic schedule and chaotic household? Then you need Debbie Lillard's book Space to Spare - "A Mom' Guide to Home Organization"

Although the chapter about the baby schedule was not applicable to me, this book is wonderful and really helping me improve in time management. This book is written by a busy mom for the busy moms, work at home moms, or stay at home moms, & dads too! This book walks you through simple processes and tips for organizing your time, your stuff and your space. The second half of the book addresses how to teach your children the life skills of being organized.

With 375 pages and 37 chapters, this book is filled with so much information. You will want to highlight points and refer back often. In fact, I am reading it again. One of the biggest tips that I have taken away from the book is writing everything down in a planner and keeping a family calendar. We live such busy lives and this has been a life saver for us.
